JBL AM7212/64-WH Two-way full range loudspeaker (white)
Description
JBL AM7212/64-WH Two-Way Full Range Loudspeaker
The AM7212/64-WH is a professional-grade two-way system engineered for consistent, high-output performance in midsize venues, installed sound applications, and touring rigs. Its trapezoidal cabinet design and rotatable waveguide provide flexible deployment options, while the white finish integrates seamlessly into corporate, educational, and performance environments. This is a workhorse speaker built to deliver reliable output session after session, night after night, without compromise.
Audio Performance & Coverage
The system combines a 2262H 12-inch LF driver with dual voice coil and dual magnetic gap construction alongside a 2432H compression driver (1.5-inch exit, 3-inch voice coil) for articulate high-frequency reproduction. With a 1.8 kHz crossover point and 60 × 40° coverage pattern, the AM7212/64-WH maintains consistent sound across medium-throw applications, while its 36 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range captures full-spectrum audio from deep bass through crisp treble, ensuring every element sits properly in the mix.
Build & Power Handling
The cabinet is constructed from 16 mm (5/8-inch) exterior-grade 11-ply Finnish birch plywood with a durable JBL DuraFlex finish, designed to withstand the demands of touring and permanent installation. Power handling reaches 1000 W continuous for the LF section (4000 W peak, 2-hour rating) and 100 W for the HF section, with 8-ohm nominal impedance and 96 dB SPL sensitivity (LF) / 115 dB SPL sensitivity (HF), enabling high-output operation in larger spaces without introducing unwanted distortion or fatigue.
